I had the same issue see https://github.com/kk7ds/pynx584/issues/40

You need a DTK-INTEL DB9 cable. The one you bought maps pin 1-1, 2-3, 3-5, etc.. The DTK-INTEL maps 1-6, 2-7, 3-8, etc..

so you had to buy another cable? or is there a configuration at software side you can change?

I think this ticket can be closed because everyone has a working cable. I also think it would be a good idea to add a wiki page with some tips to get it working. In my case, I have to change jumpers J8 and J10 (following nx584 manual instructions at https://www.surveillance-video.com/media/lanot/attachments/customimport/NX-584E-Installation-Manual.pdf), because my cable was not a NULL Modem. and after changing default jumper positions, I've got it working.
